AP/Cumberland can provide sourced color-coded communication wire to install EDGE controls. The wire
will be available in both 16 and 18 gauge to accommodate the specified distance between controls (as
shown above). The communication wire is available in one or two twisted shielded pairs, and with two dif-
ferent outside jacket colors (red and black.) Black-jacketed wire is to be used for the automation circuit
and red-jacketed wire is to be used for the safety circuit. Each of the communication wires is comprised of
two or four unique colored wires to further reduce installation errors.
